In the future, cities will have no single location. Mounted on huge vehicles, skyscrapers will roam the steppes of Russia, forming temporary citiscapes then wandering on. This gallery of fantastical cities includes atmospheric purifiers beyond Earth and a waterfall metropolis.

These images are all drawn from the runners up and winners of the NVArt digital art challenge, whose theme this year was "Art Space: Architecture and Landscape." It was sponsored by the CG Society of Digital Artists. Contest entrants clearly grasped that "landscape" doesn't just mean the Earth of today: Several winners created cities of the far future, or set on other worlds.
